Thanks for the bug report. I've changed the title because it was polemical and it didn't explain the problem. Please run the following commands in a terminal and attach all the files created (lsb_release.txt and lspci.txt).

lsb_release >lsb_release.txt
lspci -vvnn >lspci.txt

Besides attach files .xsession-errors (in your home directory) and /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Also try to see if the bug happens with the default settings. To get the default settings, install "compiz-config-manager", launch it and then go to "Preferences" (left bottom corner) and click on the "Reset to defaults" button.

Shouldn't this be set to Status= In progress since it is assigned to somebody? or at least triaged since the importance is decided to be low?

Actually I just had this assigned to me as a reminder to discuss the issue with upstream before the 9.10 release. I don't really follow the standard bug triage setup like the rest of Ubuntu with the compiz packages because we have so many different kinds of issues and upstream tends to just fix bugs right out of launchpad instead of us getting them filed in the upstream bug tracker.

It may not always seem to make sense (and I don't really have any hard rules for how the system works) but it's all done to ensure we get upstream and distro focus on certain bugs before a release. You may notice me raising and lowering the importance of some bugs as releases came and go, this is why.

You're right though, this bug should be set to Triaged which I've now done.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. It would help us a lot if you could test it on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running apport-collect <bug #> and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.
